 Algonquin used to be
the
place to come and see deer but since the late 1960s, because of maturer
forests and several strings of bad winters, deer have been relatively
scarce in the park. This is not to say that sighting a deer is unusual
nowadays but it is no longer the guaranteed certainty it was twenty
years ago.
The
best chances for seeing deer are on early morning cruises along
Highway 60. Then too, particular animals occasionally hang around
certain spots along the highway and are often seen again and again
throughout the day for weeks on end. Information about any such
"hot spots" can be obtained by enquiring at the Visitor
Centre.
